Client

Alexander James Recruiting supported us with recruitment of a candidate in 2025. The thing I was most impressed by was how much enthusiasm they were able to convey to candidates on our behalf. They clearly took the time to understand the role, which meant that the candidates they introduced us to were both well informed & excited about the opportunity. I would definitely recommend Alexander James Recruiting to others & will happily call on their services again in the future.

Alex Gallagher

Project Sales - Oakway Storage

Candidate

This year I had decided to change my career path and Alexander James Recruiting gave me a call in regards to my current position. They called very regularly making sure I was okay during the interview process both before and after. Within two weeks I had a new role from the first point of contact to an offer of employment. Even now they regularly check up on me to make sure I have settled in and am enjoying my new role. Probably the best recruiter I have had dealings with. 10/10.

Ryan Steed

Design Engineer - Teepee Materials Handling Ltd

Candidate

I came across Alex and his company when scrolling through LinkedIn. I was ready for a change of job role, but was struggling to find the next move that met all my search criteria. I had several long chats with Alex, where overtime my requirements for my next role became clear to him. I must say, he really listened to my needs and only presented opportunities that would come close and if there was any difference he made the differences clear. He opened some doors for me that would have been very difficult to open myself. I've now started the role and so far it is everything that I was told it would be.
